With summer break coming to a close, some parents feel that it’s time to start preparing their children to get back into a school-ready sleep schedule. But, getting their kids to do so can be difficult - so difficult that one mother decided to do something creative on her daughter's first day of school.

Ten-year-old Sophie, who has been described as nearly impossible to wake up in the morning, was jolted from her sleep by the loud musical efforts of a local five-man jazz band. Mom had tried everything from an soft, but insistent, back rub to throwing dog treats into Sophie’s bed so that the dog could wake her up.

As evidenced in the video below, this idea finally seems to do the trick. Enjoy your year in sixth grade, Sophie!
